Chapter 47 The High Priest's Gift!
Chapter 47: The gift of the high priest!
(Thank you everyone. The Internet cafe actually has this function now. The girl who is in the cashier will give us a happy first birthday. Haha.)
-------------------------------
Because the incident happened suddenly.
Murphy did not notice the high priest's departure, but when he realized it, the high priest's back had already gone away.
The New Year Festival has ended now.
In fact, the key part of the entire festival is to conduct a huge prayer under the guidance of the priest to motivate the power of faith to prepare for the miracle of arrival.
Murphy waved to the citizens to be quiet.
He said a few simple words, and then began to prepare for the first round of competition tomorrow.
The ancient Greeks had a very strong interest in competitive sports. This can be seen from the stop of the Peloponnese War because of the Olympic Games. Although the advantages of professional soldiers are relatively large, many other young citizens are not convinced and still actively sign up to compete with the soldiers! They have all received certain military training since childhood. Although it is a bit different from those soldiers, it is not very big.
The ultimate result of this concept is that the competition between non-military citizens and military citizens is the two factions that decide to compare who will eventually win the championship.
Murphy not only did not intend to stop such a healthy competition, but even expressed encouragement.
On the one hand, he told those non-military citizens that although they were not soldiers, they had received training since childhood, which was not much different from those soldiers. On the other hand, Murphy told the soldiers that they were all powerful soldiers and they had received the strictest training of this era. They were all excellent soldiers, how could they lose to those young men?
We must tell them with actions that you are too young.
Let’s try two more years before you come!
All right.
Murphy was fanning the flames, but he could actually predict the ending.
It is obviously difficult to win against those soldiers in the army. After all, the soldiers are stronger in terms of physical fitness. However, no matter what, they must encourage the enthusiasm of other citizens and give them the pride and pride they can gain after defeating their opponents. At the same time, he also wants to give some pressure to the soldiers in the army, otherwise these guys would not be fun to have no pressure.
This kind of tense competitive atmosphere is the key!
……………………
The generals began the first round of auditions.
After Murphy explained some things, he walked towards the Leader's Temple. He always felt that something was wrong with the high priest leaving so early today.
On the altar.
The priest Helen of the God of Love and Beauty looked at Murphy's departure back. She turned around and looked at the sculpture of the goddess of wisdom Athena, and murmured in a low voice: "Now, you have a problem for yourself. He is not those heroes who can be played with by you."
"He is Murphy! It's the arrangement of fate! He has a mark of rules..." A divine light appeared on the beautiful face of the priest of the God of Love and Beauty. She looked at Murphy's departure back and jokingly said softly: "This proud and stupid stupid woman! She also claims to be the incarnation of wisdom! I want to see how you end up in the end!"
The dark-skinned chief priest looked up at the mermaid who was gloating in front of him, and then lowered his head silently, but he didn't know what to think about.
Leader's Temple.
After Murphy walked into the temple, he saw the high priest kneeling in front of the statue of Athena, the goddess of wisdom, praying.
"What's wrong with you? Why did you come back so early?" Murphy asked with uncertainty after getting closer.
The high priest slowly raised his head when she heard this. She looked pale, but she said expressionlessly: "Nothing."
How could there be nothing?
Your face has no blood and energy, it is as pale as a piece of paper.
Murphy walked to the high priest a few steps and reached out to hold her little hand. The high priest's hand was cold, as if there was no breath of life. Murphy couldn't help but whisper: "What the hell is wrong? Your hands are so cold!"
"Nothing, it's just that I'm too tired to preside over the ceremony." After Murphy's grasp, a little bit of magic seemed to be recovered from the high priest's eyes, but it was fleeting in the blink of an eye. She pulled out the hand held by Murphy without leaving any trace, her face calmly, and said lightly: "I need a rest by myself."
"Governor, please come back."
The tone is very light, a little cold, no longer has the gentle feeling he used to be.
Governor?
In Murphy's memory, the high priest seemed to have only called himself that at the beginning!
What's wrong with her?
Why are you angry with yourself?
It shouldn't be.
I don’t seem to have done anything to make her angry recently, right? Is it because of Helen, the priest of the God of Love?
"Then you have a good rest." Murphy stared at the expressionless high priest in front of him. He was silent for a moment, and then whispered.
After saying that, he turned around and left.
I don't know what it feels like, but he always feels that the high priest is a little unfamiliar with it.
Because the high priest has always been a very gentle woman.
In Murphy's memory, the most familiar thing was her faint smile, and the expressionless look of the high priest made Murphy feel very, very strange, as if he was facing another person.
Is it Athena?
wrong!
If it were Athena, Murphy should be able to see the divine light emitted by her when it came.
Murphy could feel it either Helen or the high priest.
Maybe the high priest is too tired today.
Murphy told herself this, but an anxiety suddenly appeared in her heart, and she couldn't get rid of it.
……………………
The gate of the temple slowly closed.
Murphy stood outside the temple and stared at the high priest who was kneeling in front of the statue of Athena, the goddess of wisdom, for some reason he felt a sense of death loneliness. This made a sensation of pain like a knife in his heart!
bump!
Murphy raised his hand and punched him hard on the marble sculpture in front of the temple.
"Don't force me." Murphy stared coldly at the temple symbolizing the authority of Athena, the goddess of wisdom, and said in a deep voice: "The more rational a person is, the more crazy he is when he loses his reason!"
"I just want the high priest to stay by my side, that's all."
Yes.
Murphy is now very suspicious that she is not the one who occupies the high priest's body, and the goddess of wisdom Athena made some kind of tricks on the high priest.
For example, to close her consciousness.
In fact, after knowing that Athena could come to the high priest to dominate her consciousness, Murphy had such an idea in his mind, because according to the style of Athena, the goddess of wisdom, in mythology, I am afraid this kind of thing is not impossible!
Finally, the girl lowered her head as if she had given up. She untied the sword from her waist and handed it to Murphy.
"You want me to pull it out again?" Murphy touched his head, with a headache.
Although I had expected this in my heart, I didn’t feel very comfortable pulling this sword last time!
The tingling and burning sensation of the spirit.
Very uncomfortable!
The girl nodded obediently, then looked at Murphy with a pitiful look.
